I pitched the yeast on my CC Showcase Argentine Malbec just 5 days ago. The SG this evening is .998. Going by the instructions, I should be racking over to the carboy, but I'd really like to give it some more time on the skins and the French oak. I've snapped the lid down and put on the airlock. Question is, how long can I safely risk oxidation with this set up? One day, two, ??? My gut tells me no more than one day, but I really just don't know. Any and all advice is greatly appreciated.
